So far, my DDs (8 and 12) will be getting

Random Christmas themed chocolates (aero trees etc)
Some double edged felts (thick and thin)
A mini glitter light that changes colour
Some pencils.
Some body spray and novelty flavour (sprite/coke) lipsalve.

I need another little idea or two before they are finished, but am lost for ideas!
May look for some mini craft kits.

Up til this year, my 2 have the same in their stockings. Their under-the-tree gifts are different though.
They like to come through to our room, with their stockings and unwrap everything. And they usually dig out the same gift (size/shape) and unwrap them at the same time. Not something we told them to do, it just happened over the years.

I suppose at some point we will need to swap to different gifts, but I'm still trying to keep to very similar things at the moment.

Will check Wilko's though as they both like craft sets.
